Description pscottdv 2011-02-11 20:34:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
When printing a US-Letter-sized document to US-Letter-sized paper, default Page Scaling should be "None" not "Shrink to Printable Area".  There is no reason to shrink a properly laid out page when it was designed for the size paper in the tray.
This can be a huge hassle, for example when printing to pre-printed forms such as checks.
"Shrink to Printable Area" should be the default only if the size of the document exceeds the size of the paper in the tray.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evince-2.32.0-3.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always happens

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a US-Letter-sized document
2.Print to a US-Letter-sized page
  
Actual results:
Page is scaled down from its original size

Expected results:
Page should be printed exactly as displayed on the screen
